Compressed Audio Files (MP3/
WMA/AAC) (if so equipped)
Explanation of terms:
.MP3 — MP3 is short for Moving Pic-
tures Experts Group Audio Layer 3.
MP3 is the most well known com-
pressed digital audio file format. This
format allows for near “CD quality”
sound, but at a fraction of the size of
normal audio files. MP3 conversion of
an audio track can reduce the file size
by approximately a 10:1 ratio (Sam-
pling: 44.1 kHz, Bit rate: 128 kbps) with
virtually no perceptible loss in quality.
The compression reduces certain
parts of sound that seem inaudible
to most people.
. WMA — Windows Media Audio (WMA) is
a compressed audio format created
by Microsoft as an alternative to MP3.
The WMA codec offers greater file
compression than the MP3 codec,
enabling storage of more digital audio
tracks in the same amount of space
when compared to MP3s at the same
level of quality.
This product is protected by certain
intellectual property rights of Micro-
soft Corporation and third parties. Use
or distribution of such technology
outside of this product is prohibited
without a license from Microsoft or an authorized Microsoft subsidiary and
third parties.
. AAC/M4A — Advanced Audio Coding
(AAC) is a lossy audio compression
format. Audio files that have been
encoded with AAC are generally smal-
ler in size and deliver a higher quality
of sound than MP3.
. Bit rate — Bit rate denotes the number
of bits per second used by a digital
music file. The size and quality of a
compressed digital audio file is deter-
mined by the bit rate used when
encoding the file.
. Sampling frequency — Sampling fre-
quency is the rate at which the
samples of a signal are converted
from analog to digital (A/D conver-
sion) per second.
. Multisession — Multisession is one of
the methods for writing data to med-
ia. Writing data once to the media is
called a single session, and writing
more than once is called a multises-
sion.
. ID3/WMA Tag — The ID3/WMA tag is
the part of the encoded MP3 or WMA
file that contains information about
the digital music file such as song title,
artist, album title, encoding bit rate,
track time duration, etc. ID3 tag in-
formation is displayed on the Album/ Artist/Track title line on the display.

Compressed Video Files (models
with navigation system)
Explanation of terms:
.DivX® - DivX® refers to the DivX® codec
owned by DivX, Inc. used for a lossy
compression of video based on MPEG-
4.
. AVI - AVI stands for Audio Video
Interleave. It is a standard file format
originated by Microsoft Corporation. A
“.divx” encoded file can be saved into
the “.avi” file format for playback on
this system if it meets the require-
ments stated in the table in this
section. However, not all the “.avi” files
are playable on this system since
different encodings can be used than
the DivX® codec.
. ASF - ASF stands for Advanced Sys-
tems Format. It is a file format owned
by Microsoft Corporation. Note: Only “.
asf” files that meet the requirements
stated in the table in this section can
be played.
. Bit rate — Bit rate denotes the number
of bits per second used by a digital
video file. The size and quality of a
compressed digital audio file is deter-
mined by the bit rate used when
encoding the file. Requirement for Supporting Video Playback:

CAUTION
. Do not place metalized film near
the rear window glass or attach
any metal parts to it. This may
cause poor reception or noise.
. When cleaning the inside of the
rear window, be careful not to
scratch or damage the rear win-
dow antenna. Lightly wipe along
the antenna with a dampened
soft cloth.

You can remove the antenna if necessary.
Hold the bottom of the antenna and
remove by turning counterclockwise.
To install the antenna, turn the antenna
clockwise and tighten.
CAUTION
.To avoid damaging or deforming
the antenna, be sure to remove
the antenna under the following

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE
The system should respond correctly to all voice commands without difficulty. If problems are encountered, try the following
solutions.
Where the solutions are listed by number, try each solution in turn, starting with number 1, until the problem is resolved.
SymptomSolution
The system fails to interpret the
command correctly. 1. Ensure that the command is valid. (See “NISSAN Voice Recognition System (models with navigation system)”
(P.4-99).)
2. Ensure that the command is spoken after the tone.
3. Speak clearly without pausing between words and at a level appropriate to the ambient noise level in the
vehicle.
4. Ensure that the ambient noise level is not excessive (for example, windows open or defroster on). NOTE: If it is
too noisy to use the phone, it is likely that the voice commands will not be recognized.
5. If more than one command was said at a time, try saying the commands separately.
The system consistently selects the
wrong voicetag. 1. Ensure that the voicetag requested matches what was originally stored. (See “Quick Dial” (P.4-79).)
2. Replace one of the names being confused with a new name.
The system cannot be operated. Close the soft top (for Roadster models).

USING THE SYSTEM
The NISSAN Voice Recognition system
allows hands-free operation of the Blue-
tooth® Hands-Free Phone System.
If the vehicle is in motion, some com-
mands may not be available so full
attention may be given to vehicle opera-
tion.
Initialization
When the ignition switch is pushed to the
ON position, NISSAN Voice Recognition is
initialized, which may take up to one
minute. If the
button is pushed before
the initialization completes, the system
will accept any command.
Operating tips
To get the best performance out of the
NISSAN Voice Recognition system, ob-
serve the following:
. Keep the interior of the vehicle as
quiet as possible. Close the windows
to eliminate surrounding noises (traf-
fic noises, vibration sounds, etc.),
which may prevent the system from
recognizing voice commands cor-
rectly.
. Wait until the tone sounds before
speaking a command. Otherwise, the
command will not be received prop-
erly.
. Start speaking a command within 5
seconds after the tone sounds.
. Speak in a natural voice without
pausing between words.
Giving voice command
To operate NISSAN Voice Recognition,
push and release thebutton located
on the steering wheel. After the tone
sounds, speak a command.
The command given is picked up by the
microphone, and voice feedback is given
when the command is accepted.
. If you need to hear the available
commands for the current menu
again, say “Help” and the system will
repeat them.
. If a command is not recognized, the
system announces, “Command not
recognized. Please say again.” Repeat
the command in a clear voice.
. If you want to go back to the previous
command, you can say “Go back” or
“Correction” anytime the system is
waiting for a response.
. You can cancel a command when the
system is waiting for a response by
saying, “Cancel” or “Quit.” The system
announces “Cancel” and ends the VR
session. You can also push and hold
the
button for 5 seconds on the
steering wheel at any time to cancel
the VR session. Whenever the VR
session is cancelled, a double beep is
played to indicate you have exited the
system.
